"Elite" means "schools where the students aren't processed like inmates in Rikers Island."
This is an interesting news article that won't benefit from worthwhile discussion on this forum. I'll only say that it's strange that the number of black/Hispanic students has dropped to less than 1% admittance when that wasn't the case just even ten years ago.
These schools are dominated by lower income Asian students. They have learned the system and worked hard to get in.
Is this some kind of systemic racism? When one low income minority group outcompetes the others?
The elephant in the room is that Asian families are doing something the black and latino families are not. Enforcing quotas or lowering thresholds will create division, resentment, and more racism.
